NY LOST NE.

NY LOST NE.
Children, do you ever,
In walks by land or sea-
Meet little maiden
Long tine lost to me!
She is gay and gladstone.
Has laughing face,
And heart as sunny;
And her name is Grace.
Naught she knows Of sorrow,
Naught Of doubt or blight;
Heaven is just above her
All her thoughts are white.
Long time since lost her,
That other Me OF NINE;
She crossed into Times shadow
Out o. Youths sunshine.
Now the darkness keeps her;
And call her as will,
The years that lie between US
Hide her from me still.

And lonely as can be-
Oh, children, if you meet her,

LII is almost impossible for one to be
contented and happy without perfect
health, and it is natural that everybody
strives to be as healthy as possible We
are well aware that often one does not
know just what would be best to do or
not to do under certrin circumstances,
and that mistakes are frequently made;
but we all agree that taking cold is one
of the most prolific sources of dangerous
diseases, and that we must look to the
manner of clothing and the material of
which clothing is made, as that is of great
Importance when we consider the ques-
ton of how we can best prevent taking
cola. We know also, that in this change
able and trying climate, it is necessary
to wear wooden underclothing, and that
for many persons it would be advisable
to wear it the year round-heavier or
lighter according to the season. The great
objection to this, as is well known, is that
almost all hannels shrink SO that gar
ment can no longer be worn on that ac-
count. For this reason we always keep
the "Amana" fannels, which have
stood the test right here for many years,
being bought by many, who have once
used them, to the exclusion of all other
tannels. If you want something that is
really good In every respect, ask for the
"Amana" t1annels, and You will make
no mistake. SCHUETTE Bros,

THIS issue of The Pilot lacks much of
being up to its usual standard Of excel
lence. 1t may be accounted for in the
absence of its editor-in-chief who is doing
institute work at Chiffon, and lack of
time on the part of the "other fellow" to
hustle around and pick up items, rush
of other work keeping him confined to
the Office. Usually, when Nagle goes off
he sends in a batch of items from wher-
ever he may happen to be. This trip he
forwarded but single one, dated Chiffon.
August 20, 1887, which read as follows
Dear Ed:-Send me ten dollars. Yours,
john" That contribution, instead of
mending matters only made them worse,
as instead of helping to "fill up" it neces-
STATED an overhauling of the books and
lively chase among delinquent subscrib-
bers to raise the ten dollars necessary to
return the said editor-in-chief to the bo-
som of his friends. SO the shortcomings
of The Pilot this week must be charged
to John.

On Thursday last prominent bust
ness man of Fort Howard left his home
with the intention of being absent several
days. He changed his plans however and
returned early on the following night.
Going to his home he knocked for admis-
sion and after considerable delay the
door was suddenly thrown open and the
returning head of the family knocked
down by man who, after dealing him
the blow, skedaddled without so much as
introducing himself or giving any evil
dence of his identity. The result of the
episode will be suit for divorce. The
man who left the house so suddenly is
said to be a resident of this city.

WERE it not for the fact that there are
but two unmarried county officer holders
in the city, The Pilot would tell it's read
ers that young gentleman holding a
county office was recently engaged" to a
south side lady. Such an item would
point to either John Chloupek or The
Pilots homely editor who is at present too
full of school work to allow his tender
feelings-if he ever had any-to lead him
in the direction of matrimonial entangle-
ments. So it is thought best not to say
anything about the matter and tender
congratulations by mail.

AN assault and battery case occupied
theAttention of Justice Kiland from Sat
urday morning until Tuesday evening.
The captain of the schooner Swallow was
arrested on the complaint of one of the
sailors on his vessel, whom he had struck
with a capstan bar. Among the crew of
the Swallow was young woman cook.
During the early part of Friday night,
and while the captain and most of the
crew were ashore, man entered the
apartment of the cook and endeavored to
take improper liberties with her person.
She resisted and after a struggle elected
him from the room. Who the fellow was
did not transpire. The captain on reach
Ing the vessel and learning of the ATTEMPT
made upon the cook, started out to avenge
the injury. The complainant was the
first man he met and without more ado
he struck him with the bar The case
was finally settled, the captain paying
the costs. No arrests for the assault
upon the cook were made.

Twill be remembered that one NIGHT

1t Will be remembered that one night
IN November last span of horses, wagon
and harness were stolen from Thomas
kolochesky of Cooperstown, and in JAN
uary following Albert Rehbein of Newton
lost two horses, harness and set of bob
slelghs In the same manner. A.vigorous
hunt for the thieves through the lumber
regions of this state and Northern Mich
Igan was made at the time, but they elud-
ed the officers and the affairs were forgot
ten by all but few interested persons
Last week Sheriff Bolen got wind of the
rascals and in company with the owners
OF the stolen teams went to Peshtigo.-
There he found the wagon stolen from
kolochesky in the possession of one
Fletcher, who secured it from the Pesh-
tgo Company in a trade, they having
received 1t from a man named Boomer, a
farmer residing few miles from Peshti-
go. Boomer was hunted up and failing
to satisfactorily account for the manner
In which he procured the wagon, was ar
rested as an accomplice in the theft and
Is now locked up in the jail. A rather
peculiar circumstance in connection with
the affair is the fact that the box on the
wagon stolen from Kolochesky is the
same one that was on Rehbein's sleighs
when they were taken, and goes to prove
that either the same person stole both
teams or else was one of a gang from
the same neighborhood. The wagon and
box had both been painted over, but by
scratching off the last coat applied the
name of Frank Serge as maker of the
wagon was revealed and the owner in
stantly identified it as his missing prop
erty. Sheriff Bolen thinks he is on the
track of at least three horse thieves and
Is now out on still hunt for them.
